Carly: Yes, a bit.

Chapter 25b

As Carly continues to talk with her cousin:
Carly: I just feel so betrayed and so confused. I am not sure what to think about Cameron anymore Dani.

Dani: I wouldn't be talking Mrs Mommy Dallas.
Carly: Got me there. -Smiles-

Cameron: You know, I think since we have another married couple in the future and a whole bunch of room here at the house. Maybe your husband here can make it up for not telling you by getting them a room in this beautiful mansion that we call a home?
Carly: -Looks at him and smiles- Would you guys want to live here?

Chapter 26b

After getting asked that question:
Dani: Let me see, hell yes. I mean, being here with my cousin, my new baby cousin sounds great. The ex-boyfriend part. Not so much but I will deal with it for my cousin.
Carly: -Looks at Cameron- Apologize.

Cameron: I am sorry for breaking your heart and cheating on you Danielle. I was a jerk and a complete idiot. But I can't really say I wish I hadn't done it because look where it led me to be now. Married to the girl of my dream who I have a child with. -Smiles-
Carly: -Cuddles up to him-
Dani: Okay, I take that as an apology. Just because I am so happy for my cousin and for the fact that I myself am engaged to marry a nice man..

Chapter 27

2 Weeks Later when Jack & Dani have moved:
Jack: -Just got dressed for the day when he sees Dani standing on the balcony just wearing her robe- Hey.
Dani: -Hears him and then turns around smiling-
Jack: -Walks over to her and then rubs her arms before taking her hands and getting closer-
Dani: -Smiles as she grabs his neck and then kisses him softly- I already like living here baby.
Jack: Me too. Me and you can live like adults.
Dani: -Rubs his neck and then kisses him- Though we are still young at heart.

Jack: Listen, how about me and you just relax here alone today. I mean we did work hard in moving.
Dani: Good idea. I am kinda nervous about hanging out with Carly right now since her husband is my ex.
Jack: She is your cousin though. What is wrong with confronting her.

Dani: I am not sure. It is just awkward to be an in-law to my ex-boyfriend.
Jack: Lets put it this way. Lets say I used to date your cousin, would you still want to marry me?
Dani: -Smiles- You are so good at doing that Jack. -Kisses him quickly- I guess we can. I mean, it can't be awkward between the 3 of us.
Jack: Listen. Lets just eat breakfast alone okay? I will get breakfast, we can eat and then just have a nice kiss. It is early still.
Dani: -Smiles and kisses him as she rubs his neck before going to sit on the bed-
Jack: -Goes downstairs to get some breakfast-

Chapter 28

When Jack is downstairs:
Jack: -Walks into the kitchen to see Carly and Cameron-
Carly: Hey Jack, is Dani coming down for breakfast today?
Jack: No, she is still really nervous I think regarding how you are married to Cameron.
Cameron: I thought she was cool with it. -Looks at Connor-
Carly: She nervous regarding how I am married to her ex?

Jack: Ya. She really just wants to eat up there for now?
Carly: Listen, how about you just stay down here for now. I am going to talk to my couin.
Cameron: Want me to feed Connor?
Carly: Please?

Cameron: -Smiles as he rubs her arm and then kisses her softly- Of course.
Carly: -Smiles as she looks at Jack- Just relax here. I am going to fix this.

Chapter 29a

When Carly is upstairs:
Carly: -Knocks on Jack & Dani's door- Dani?
Dani: -Sitting in bed waiting for Jack- Hey Carly, what's up?
Carly: Listen, I want to have a little family talk. Just cousins.
Dani: Of course. Come here. -Sits up-
Carly: -Gets ont he bed and then looks at her-
Dani: What's up?

Carly: Dani, I get why you are nervous to go downstairs right now. Its awkward between you, me and Cameron. Please don't let it be. Do you remember why we invited you to live here?
Dani: Because we were engaged and he is part of the guys.
Carly: That was only the guys' reason. I invited you because I wanted to have time to reconnect with my cousin. Dani, we were great friends when we were young. Then Cameron came along and I never saw you. We have a chance to reconnect just the two of us. I mean, isn't that what you want?
Dani: Of course I want to reconnect with you.

Carly: Please Dani, ignore the fact that my name is Carly Dallas. Just think of me as Carly Thompson. Your cousin who loved to play dolls with you and gossip all day long over Justin Bieber or Cody Simpson a few years ago.
Dani: -Chuckles- I will have to try Carly. I want to reconnect with you no doubt. I will come downstairs.
Carly: Sit with Jack and relax with your fiancee. Or if it makes it easier on your I will take you away alone. I just want to make it easy for you to relax with me. I want you to be here for me too Dani. If you are just here for Jack then what is the point of me reaching out to you. Tell me you are just here for Jack and I will stop.

Chapter 29b

As Carly continues to talk to her cousin:
Dani: I am confused. I mean, I want to live with Jack but he really wants to live here. I just feel awkward here because Cameron is here.
Carly: Dani, you are not going to have a good relationship unless you tell him that. Please, tell him.
Dani: You would know for sure because you are already married.
Carly: Then take my advice and talk to Jack and tell him how you fell. If you don't want to live here, I understand. I offered because I thought you would want to reconnect with me.

Jack: -Knocks on the door-
Carly: -Looks at Jack-
Jack: Bad time?
Carly: Dani, do you want me here while you talk to him or do you just want to think about what we just talked about?
Dani: I need your help I can't tell him all this myself. I am scared.
Jack: Why are you scared?
Dani: Carly, just stay here for a minute. I am going to talk to Jack on the balcony. Please?
Carly: I will be right here.'
Dani: -Smiles as she gets up and then takes Jack's hand to go outside-
Jack: -Puts breakfast down first-
